____________________________________ [May 18,2002 9:38am - xbandnamex ""] that was a fun show. I'm glad we still had a bunch of people sticking around to the very end to watch us. I'm not going to say much about Bury Your Dead, but their fan base has no respect for anyone or anything while they play. You would think there would be some limit to how much "shit" could be "fucked up" before people would calm down a bit. Of course, the laughing and joking mood the kid (who busted people's teeth) was in after the situation was just the icing on the cake. <br> <br>Thanks to the Rev for coming out and taking photographs. If this was a bunch of bands we had never heard of, I'd say the show could have almost been weirder than our Providence gig back in January. Ballroom dancing upstairs, punk rock next door and tough guys on the dancefloor. <br> <br>Wooooooo. |
_______________________________________ [May 18,2002 10:32am - blackandblue ""] yeah, i went upstairs for most of the bury your dead set cause most of the kids who were moshing were being lame. going into the crowd of kids who're just watching and punching randomly with a closed fist? that's bull****. and gary's teeth were reeaalllyy messed up. whatever though, the enclitic and eyes like autumn were amazing....... |
________________________________________ [May 18,2002 10:49am - XBuff-TuffyX ""] Lets start a shadow band called 'Dig Em' Back Up' and follow them around to shows. that would be so annoying.. |
______________________________________________ [May 18,2002 12:54pm - the_smile_adventure ""] hahah that is a great idea for a band. <br> <br>too bad i missed out on this show. i just couldnt get a ride. i really wanted to get my face smashed by a dipshit for no god dam reason...too bad. ha. the pictures look great by the way. nice nice nice |
_____________________________________ [May 18,2002 1:53pm - RustedAngel ""] i fucking hate bands that just have constant breakdowns...gaaaay!!!!!!!! |
______________________________________ [May 18,2002 4:51pm - Donkey kong ""] I went to the show I thought all the bands that played were good. I really liked irnach, & Light is the language. Bury your dead is cool but to many break downs for me I like that crazy grind core shit!!!!!! |
_________________________________________ [May 18,2002 11:55pm - i was there.. ""] retarded. <br>you pussies. cry about it somemore <br> <br>if you can take it then i suggest you stop going to shows. <br>people dance.. kids get hurt.. oh well |
__________________________________________ [May 19,2002 12:19am - XrainbowbrightX ""] Pussies? Maybe. If not being a pussy means pushing people around and knocking some kid's teeth in for no apparent reason then I guess Im a pussy. I wonder if that big neanderthal motherfucker knows what a joke he is, or if any of his tough guy FSU "brothers" know what a joke 90% of the kids who go to shows think they are. Violence is pathetic, and so is FSU. FUCK THEM. |
_________________________________ [May 19,2002 1:00am - xGrindx ""] i wasnt at this show to witness what had happend, but ive seen stupid shit like this happen before. personally i like to dance, but i make sure not to hit people. i see these kids go to shows and purposly hit kids it makes you think if they are even there for the music? i guess im glad i didnt go to that show even though i missed iranach. |
____________________________________ [May 19,2002 1:49am - erytyturt ""] hmm. too bad hes not fsu. ::shrugs:: |
________________________________ [May 19,2002 10:03am - eben ""] Its pathetic to see kids using shows as means to be violent twards others and not face any concequences. You know... you can just join a gang and leave us alone at the shows, while still getting a steady diet of violence... <br> <br>the excuse: i was dancing <br> <br>well I just learned a new dance, i call it "leave the show" <br> <br>Its easy, you just do a sideways shuffle right out the door, and then you dont come back! <br> <br>the day i go to a show and there isn't the smaller, less agressive population up against the wall trying to avoid 2 or 3 sweaty steroid freaks swinging fists.. and everyone is just rocking to great bands, is the day my faith in DIY shows is renewed. Untill then, I'll just sit behind our merch table. |
_________________________________________ [May 19,2002 5:35pm - genitalgrinder ""] i think it sucks that the guy got hurt and its fucking gay if it was on purpose. i love the fact that kids dance and i do think that if you get hit by accident at a show then shrug it off, but its also entirely different to be doing it on purpose. its one thing to be dancing and like pop someone and be like sorry man and another thing to be walking around, aiming giant sweaty fists at peoples teeth. <br>all i am saying is he could have been like sorry man instead of thinking he's so fucking cool for seriously hurting someone. |
_____________________________________ [May 19,2002 9:12pm - RustedAngel ""] i think all those guys that think they are so bad ass, should just keep all the arm swinging and jump kicking all in the center of the pit. See how long you last then instead of taking your aggression out on the people not being aggressive. A little unfair don't you think? |
___________________________________ [May 19,2002 10:37pm - slimBYD ""] we don't condone people getting thier teeth knocked out, we just play music that makes us and other people move. yah its unfortunate that someone got hurt but we cant appologize for other peoples actions. <br> <br>thanks to the reverend for the pics and the support |
_______________________________________ [May 20,2002 11:34am - the_reverend ""] ok time for me to chime in. The show wasn't that bad, violence wise. Yes, it sucks that someone got their teeth messed up and had to go to the hospital and it <b>really</b> sucks that the guy who did it didn't care about it, but the bands were all amazing. I remember seeing the drummer knock someone down realy hard at the taunton show and I thought "what a jerk", but then he went over and appologized very sencerly to the guy. That's what it's all about, respect. Just think, with out all these kids coming to shows THERE WOULD BE NO SHOWS and my life would be a lot more boring. <br> <br>I must admit, I liked Bury Your Dead with two singers instead of one (but hell, he couldn't bench his body wait 15 times so it was his own damn fault). "too many break downs" or not, the crowd loves these kids. <br>Iranach was brutal, too bad they are breaking up and too bad I didn't have my camera on when chan went WWF style with a chair on his own head. <br>Eyes like autumn had everyone singing along with them, can't wait for 6/10 when they'll be on my show. <br>Surrender, even with out their normal lead singer, are always great and good to see. <br>Light is the language played the first? track off their cd and I almost crapped myself it was so good. <br>david is buring blew the kids away, even though their set was cut short due to a tackling. <br>and last but not least, the:enclitic ground down a 9 minute set. <br> <br>so I guess.. moral of the story, be respectful of other kids. If you accidentally hurt someone, appologize. Your mom will be so proud of you. |
___________________________________ [May 20,2002 3:35pm - Someone. ""] Oh yeah, keep complaining about people getting hurt but what you all shit talkers aren't talking about is about the little incident that happened right after bury your dead's set, two of you were trying to beat up some guy, I saw it too. One of you hit him first and he was backing away and some fag with a red jacket sucker punched the kid , he ran out the door holding his face... hmmmm... did anyone see that? , I sure as hell did. So before you run your trap about certain people dancing hard and UNINTENTIONALLY hurting people WHILE dancing, talk about the fact that some of you are a bunch tough guy wanna bes that wanted to beat up a kid at the show. |
_______________________________ [May 20,2002 4:10pm - 7744 ""] i fucking love bury your dead. <br>those guys tear shit up. <br>but about the brutal mosh part... ive seen a lot. <br>here in milford, ct they played and i was stuck <br>against the wall for a while. cause i didnt really <br>know who they were. well the safest place is the pit <br>if you dont want to get hit, stay away from the pit, <br>or go in it. thats what i learned. peace. |
_______________________________ [May 20,2002 5:17pm - 1207 ""] so wheres better? in or out? im confused. |
___________________________________ [May 20,2002 10:29pm - wei wei ""] everyone should sit down and sway back and forth to break downs if that is gonna help solve the violence shit. <br> <br>common, all that fills the boards nowadays is... <br>"those fuckkers were beating innocent kids up." <br>and <br>"you guys are pussys b/c you can't handle our dancing shit." <br> <br>you can enjoy music without punching peoples teeth out <br>and having stupid arguments about how your gonna fuck each other up at the shows later. <br> <br>give us a break! <br>enjoy the music an don't hit anyone [to hard]! <br> |
__________________________________ [May 20,2002 10:43pm - xGrindx ""] finally some sense |
__________________________________________ [May 20,2002 11:07pm - AllanHoldsworth ""] Moshing is so gay. I can't believe no one ever headbangs to us. |
___________________________________________ [May 21,2002 12:06pm - toobadugothurt! ""] People dance hard during Bury Your Dead--Get over it! Did you ever stop and think that maybe "that big guy" did not know that he hit someone. If he did, he would of apologized.--You don't know him,so how can you judge? There were skinny little kids dancing harder then him and noone complained. Just because he is a big,people want to start trouble...I saw those fights and he wasn't involved in any of those! I think that if "that big guy" wanted to start trouble with you, believe me you would know! I have seen certain people who post against violence intentionally hit kids at shows, so I would not talk if I was you...Everytime people dance at shows & accidentally hit some kid, people try to say all kinds of #@!? about it--Next time try confronting people instead of posting it on a board!!! |
______________________________________________ [May 21,2002 12:44pm - toobadyour IQ is 6 ""] i think its hilarious that you st*upid f*ucks still call that dancing. moshing is done. when you see it on a budweiser beer commercial, you know its over. shows are about MUSIC. go take up karate. |
___________________________________________________________ [May 21,2002 2:03pm - moshyourgutstodeathintotheground ""] thats a nice quote from mtv you fag , your not the only one that watched that documentary on moshing you stupid fuck, learn how to dance then run your mouth pussy |
______________________________________ [May 21,2002 3:27pm - hahayoufool ""] this is a response to toobadyour IQ is 6 <br>Go back home to your mama and listen to <br>the Bee-Gees where your world is nice and safe! <br>...And stop watching TV, it's already proven that <br>it rotted your brain! |
_________________________________________________ [May 21,2002 4:06pm - I'm scared. real scared. ""] MTV is THE source for current music news. ten to the hour, every hour, right here on MTV. You... Hear it... First. <br> <br>let me try to diss you on a level you can understand ok? <br> <br>You is a dummy. Your mom didnt hug you enough, so now your going to dance becasue your mad. <br> <br>Me is smart, and my mom hugged me a lot. |
___________________________________ [May 21,2002 4:08pm - ebenator ""] this is silly. we all go to shows for basically the same reason. just don't dance like an a$$hole and these posts wouldnt go on and on. |
_______________________________________ [May 21,2002 4:11pm - doug in fits ""] haha, you like mtv. |
___________________________________ [May 21,2002 10:38pm - mitchell ""] Ah well, kids dance. I was used to all that. In philly and north jersey kids dance all into each other all the time. Bury Your Dead was amazing, and they are tight and good as shit. ah well, my opion dosen't count. I am glad we,davidisburning, got to play in mass. All the bands were good as shit esp. bury your dead and iRANCH. |
__________________________________________ [May 21,2002 11:19pm - lostcheshirecat ""] i agree that the ultra violence is a tad silly. but. you can always like..... not stand right next to them. OR! <br>take karate. |
_________________________________________ [May 22,2002 8:16pm - XrainbowbrightX ""] Hey tobadugothurt, did you see the guy laughing about knocking the kid's teeth out, I did. |
____________________________________ [May 23,2002 2:56pm - jonhostage ""] knocking teeth out is not cool. |
______________________________________ [May 23,2002 3:09pm - the_reverend ""] unless though teeth belong to a backstreet boy... <br>then, please, knock out another. |
_____________________________________ [May 23,2002 10:58pm - jonhostage ""] agreed. <a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/assassin/backst/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.newgrounds.com/assassin/backst/index.html</a> |
